text question - Epic 4G General

what does the exclamation point in the red triangle mean in the text list? i've been getting that alot since i upgraded to EB13

Please see if the text went through, this normally means the text was not sent.

its funny... i scrolled back through my texts and there were texts it said didnt' go through that did. so its indicating that the text didnt' send, yet i'm getting a response. meanwhile people are telling me they didn't get texts that the phone said went through.. :: sigh ::

Not showing SMS texts

Sorry if this has been addressed in another thread but I could not find it.
I am receiving a notification that I have received a text message, and a green ! next to the person who sent it. But when I go to read the message it is not showing up anywhere. I called and asked the person who sent the message if he sent one and he did. This happened multiple times in a row. Is this a common issue and is there a fix? Thanks
SMS prob
i've had this same problem on tmo us and it usually happens about midnight i even called tmo and asked them and all they could say was try a hard reset.but after all that whenver the msg comes in ive found that the msgs are usually towards the top of your convo list then later theyll start showing up at the bottom if the list

Post some pics from your phone with the text messages... I can't really say what they are, unless someone is sending you anonymous text messages?
I had this for a while (also on Orange, stock ROM) and did manage to get rid of it - problem is I can't remember exactly what I did as fiddling around so much!
I think it had something to do with a missed call or voicemail message. Try deleting an entry (or entries) from the call history with a similar time stamp to the sms message.

A further thought - using the built in message app (not handcent etc) press menu - settings - Manage SIM card messages and delete from there.
One of these methods sorted it out for me but this was weeks ago...
Hi folks.
I get these Anonymous texts whenever I have a voicemail (on Orange UK, generic HTC ROM). I think that when you get a voicemail, the signal from Orange to say that you've got voicemail comes as this anonymous text and lands on your SIM (and triggers the voicemail icon on your notification bar).
I'd delete this text only to find it reappear every time I restart my device. The only way to get rid of it permanently is (as AjUK said), go to Messages>>Settings>>Manage SIM Messages and delete it from there.
I guess turning off Voicemail notifications would sort it, but I'd rather have them and live with the hassle.

It's literally just a text with an 'Anonymous' number but it doesn't have any text. Usually get them after flashing a new rom.

Text message after getting voicemail

Ok so I'm on bonsai 1.1.3 with the new cwm and emotionless beast theme. This just started a couple days ago. When I get a new voicemail I then all of a sudden get a new text message. The text message is from 9016 and it says android ###-###-#### (the phone number that sent me the voicemail) has sent you a sprint voice message. Call 408-970-0000. Mmsn,106bee099,9fc6,v69bdosvezi//cm. This is just one example of one I got. Like I said it just started a couple days ago. Anyone ever had this and know what it is? It's really annoying when this happens. Thanks for your help!
Do you have the no bubble messaging app? Or the stock messaging app?

I have this too after I replaced the bubble MMS app with the white one with square pictures on the left (similar to a facebook chat looking thing). Looks like the evo sms app from what i've seen.
Is that whats causing it? All I did was push the Mms.apk from viperrom to bonsai 1.13
all you have to do is blacklist the number the text message comes from. Not sure if the stock app will do it, but handcent will.
I never changed my SMS or anything. I just updated the bonsai rom. As soon as I get my voicemail notification I get those new text messages.
This is happening to me as well.
this is going to be funny...
but can someone attach the MMS.apk that is causing..i kinda actually want this to happen after i get a voicemail..
thanks
No 9016 txt with qr 2.7 b ut when I added on the 1.7.3 theme I get the txt

I just have my VM setup to forward to my Google Voice number. That way I never get VM in my Sprint inbox - no fuss with visual VM either. You can use either the Google Voice app or have Google Voice send you a text.
Anybody know why its happening. Is it something in the bonsai rom cause.i havent messed with my sms and voicemail?
Sent from my Evo killer!
that is the visual voicemail to text thing it happens on all phones with vvm to text, call tech support tell them to block the number from texting and problem solved, i have to do this a few times a day d]since i do their tech support lol
Its from the messaging app with the rom. Its using the no bubble mod with the 5mb mod. I figured out that was causing it and just found a stock messaging.apk in the theme forums. Once you switch it out, call your self a couple times and you will notice the text after voicemail goes away.

Check in the theme section for the no bubble mod mms.apk. I would post it but I'm at work and don't have a computer near by.

I'm not positive, but I think if you are getting VM notification texts saying "call 408-970-0000(or any number)to listen to your VM messages, its because your voice mail isn't provisioned properly. The network doesn't realize your phone has visual voice mail, so its sending you a text to let you know to call to hear them. This happened to me a few times on my HTC hero when flashing cyanogen mod, and also a few times on my epic when i had a bad flash, or i had a poor signal on my first boot.
You should be receiving a message with a sort of code in it, something like {android}/noreply/notificationon(i don't remember the exact syntacs or message, but it will look something like that) it was caused by your MMS.apk.
When i had the provisioning issue, this is what i did to resolve it:
1. Dialed *38(resets VM to carrier in case it as setup to go to google voice, or other third party VM).
2. Open the VVM app
3. Hit menu
4. press Compose
5. in the "to" field put "[email protected]"
6. press record
7. as soon as the "send" button ungrays and ill allow you to, press it.
If this doesn't work you can try making a nandroid backup and odining to a stock rom, then re-rooting and restoring your nandroid.
Best of luck

I have this same issue, but when I blacklist it with Handcent, it still gives me a notification that I have an unread text message even though it doesn't show up on my conversation list...Looks like I might just have to go back to stock and re-root unfortunately...
PS - Also tried the above and haven't seen any changes, still get the stupid 9016 text that I have an unread voicemail...
Well I did the email to activate and got a txt back. Still get the 9016...odd didn't happed on qr 2.67 but mold mms is 1.73 theme did....

I'm pretty sure this is google voicemail interfering with your regular voice mail. You need to go into gvoice and deactivate the number from going to google, and it will stop.
I'm using viper rom and get the same text message so it is not rom specific. I have tried the messaging.apk change and still get the messages. Does not appear anything is working so far to stop the texts

Hey mikel719 or anyone who has the stock Froyo Messaging app, can you please post it here so we can fix the issue if we dont want to download handcent to blacklist or download redlist to hide the message?

Texting issues

When using my DX to text my wife on her regular Droid, my messages come in to her messed up. For example, I sent her a message about working late but all she received was "tomordinner for us". I didn't even type in the words "dinner for us" in the text!
Also, I see a pop up to add the green android smilies (you know, the happy face, embarrassed, etc) but when I place them within the text, they look like the typed characters for them but not the actual image. She sees them just fine on her phone but I don't when I send them or when I receive them from her.
Any idea what's up? Oh, my phone is unmodded, totally "stock" and I'm running 2.2
Thanks in advance folks.
Are you using the stock messaging app? If so the emoticons wont show. As far as the messed up texts, not sure. I would recommend you go with either handcent or go sms for your text messaging

Receiving picture messages problem.

It seems that if I don't have data on and someone sends me a picture message, I don't get a text or anything indicating that. When I turn on data I still don't receive the text, but when they resend the picture with my data on. I'll get two picture messages, one being the past one I didn't get. Why is this happening?

Bump I know my s2 would show a picture message with a question mark and I'd turn my data on and download it. But with this phone and same APN I get no text message at all. Unless the person sends the picture while my data is on
